PJM-AE1-173 is a proposed solar generation project located in Sussex County, Virginia, within the Dominion service area. The project, with a total capacity of 800 MW, consists entirely of solar photovoltaic generation. It is currently active in the PJM interconnection queue, having entered the queue on September 25, 2018. The proposed commercial operation date is October 1, 2029. The project's interconnection status is currently in the Facility Study phase, and the point of interconnection is the Carson-Suffolk 500 kV line.
